Survivability and dps

[Bubbles232]

Just like the title says I'm looking for survivability and still high dose.  What would be a great set for this? I have looked and kind of like rad armour, does rad rad do good or something better?

"high" is very subjective what are you actually trying to do? How much do you want to spend on IOs and sets? Are you solo or in a group? Lots of builds can solo +4/x8 missions

Probably do more solo with some groups mixed in.  Basically I don't want any fights to be painfully slow I want to have fun level and playing endgame with decent damage.  I can make money not worried about that

And a lot turns on which enemies you want to do this with.  Lots of builds can solo ~some~ +4/x8 mobs.  Very few builds can walk with aplomb through a series of -all the worst- groups set +4/x8.  Somewhere between Resistance, Vanguard, Arachnos, Malta, Carnival, Talons, Banished, or whatever, you'l likely meet your personal Kryptonite.

Yeah everyone has a week set I've noticed.

 

I have a rad/rad I enjoy I have also fooled around with titan weapons and enjoyed it.  Staff looks interesting.

 

Just trying to make one character without hating it haha!

 

Hope this helps....well helps you help me;)

A build with high survivability and DPS is called "a brute". It's the archetype's whole schtick. Basically any combination of powersets will do it pretty well.

 

If Rad/Rad sounds appealing, go for it. Those are both good sets.
